Recently, law enforcement agencies and police individuals have become more diligent in spreading warnings about scammers who usually just knock on your door and pretend to be agents of statutory companies.

Most of them offer cleaning products or perhaps cleaning services they can accomplish for cheap rates.

More often than we think, many of these are mere tricks to acquire access to your property. For instance, salesmen in Lincolnshire who claim to be former felons were reported to have been feigning to sell cleaning products as a component of a criminal justice resettlement project.

“Spring-cleaning time seems to have come early this year, as there have been reports of ex-offenders selling cleaning products door-to-door in Lincolnshire and further afield. They claim to be working for a project that is backed by the Youth Offending Service, Probation Service and Prison Service. Lincolnshire Probation Trust is not involved in this type of resettlement work.”

Consequently, when choosing a cleaning company you wish to hire, it’s best to ensure that you’re dealing with accredited and legitimate companies. Personally contacting these companies is still the best way to spare you from being scam victims. If you doubt the person knocking on your door offering cleaning products and/or services, it’s wise to ask them to verify their identity. It’s also advisable to purchase cleaning products only from physical stores, or perhaps ask your trusted cleaning company for advice on which products to use for which cleaning task.

Most domestic and commercial cleaning companies already own machines, tools and other cleaning solutions that they utilise in their work, and these are known to be the most effective tools and cleaning products.

Bear in mind that you should only contact and hire an agency that you can trust. Make sure you always take advantage of the internet to check online for supporting information. Indisputable companies mostly have a website which includes all vital and essential information regarding the services and products they offer.

If your preferred company happens to be the total opposite then it’s time to be extra cautious.
